Boston-based Mr. Airplane Man, a dynamic garage duo, comprised of Margaret Garret on guitar/vocals and Tara McManus on drums/vocals recorded a killer record, C'mon DJ, at the legendary Easly-McCain Studios in Memphis, with Reigning Sound's Greg Cartwright at the production helm (and contributing guitar parts). Unfortunately, this turned out to be the band's swan song. McManus has since formed Turpentine Brothers.BOY WONDER'S HOT CIRCLES/ 10:00 PM-MIDNIGHT
